Founder’s Editorial:

Kraft Paper v. Cork: In recent years, we’ve seen items made of cork get a fair deal of attention. In our research, cork does not represent a good eco-friendly and vegan alternative because the backing, often made from polyester, makes up the majority of the product. The cork layer that is glued on top of the polyester is a small fraction of the thickness of the material. We believe that kraft paper, which contains at least 50% cellulose (and can approach 80% cellulose) is a much more eco-friendly material. While we have made cork items in the past, we stopped manufacturing with cork a few years ago once we better understood the material. We are open to revisiting the cork if the material stops requiring a backer. We have similar commentary for cactus leather and apple leather. While both materials are vegan, we choose not to use them because there is very little cactus or apple in the material. The majority of the material is a backing.
